Fascinating to have a wine older than me. Smell was raisins - reminded me of amarone — 2 months ago

Very nice Gourds, I wasn’t mocking them at all. Just a little word play considering, I thought it funny myself 🤷🏼♂️.Excellent and fruity, a great lead in wine with a nice juicy finish. — 4 years ago

Non so perché l’avevo dimenticato in un angolo della cantina: un favoloso ritrovo!
Un bouquet prestigioso degno dei poeti che lo raccontano.
Da riprovare assolutamente! 💯 — a day ago
Pale straw lemon color with aromas of stone and citrus fruit with floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peaches and lemon with notes of herb floral spice. Good acidity, balance and structure, medium+ finish ending with fruit, floral and mineral character. — 2 months ago
Wow! I Was not sure if to believe the 9.2 mark but I am blown away! Amazing red! I will give it a solid 9. Just because I am not sure i tried 9.2 — 3 years ago
So. Damn. (Elegantly). Crushable. Rangpur lime, a petrol-y olive oil, memories of a summer fruit pie, a sprinkle of tarragon, crisp mineral-y tang that fades into a beautiful calcium carbonate lime zest finish and a hit of aromatic joint…oh, wait… — 4 years ago

Enjoyed a 2013, amazing oaky punch with cherry and tabacco notes. Perfect for a good tipple with friends and family, or with a decent meal. Enjoyed at Laloda in Chianti, Italy. — a month ago

Great out of the gate. Needs an hour to fully express
Nose is cherry flower, as this opens some savoriness. Some old Nebbiolo character. Some sweet wood.
Palate is a bit tight. Super elegant cherries. Some bitterness. Very silky. As this opens more sweet cherry fruit. Elegant richness.

I could live on this. Alpine tiny red berry intensity, medium/lightish weight, firm tannins, opens up to lusher, crushed red fruits with air, feels like it never swerves off (whatever is) the path too far. Prominent acidity but in a cool menthol tone which drives it all along. Sure, has to drink in the next 1-3 years, but at about 17$…..Given all the Barbera in the blend, I can imagine pairing with most dishes, including tomato based bouillabaisse. 65% Picotener (“the forgotten Nebbiolo “/30% Barbera/5% Neretto. — a day ago
